Hi PingSkills Team

Today I practised my extremely weak loop and thanks to you I managed to empower it to the point that I even forced my sparring partner to focus a little on what he is doing, which I have never managed before.(Many players when sparring with me even use their non-dominant arm, because it is just enough to defeat me. Some of them even play matches with meĀ  (on tournaments) with their non-dominant arm)

But some of my shots were jumping very high from his bat, but I did not realize if it is caused by a spin or by a power

Do you have any advcie how can I recognise it?

Thanks DK

Hi DK,

Well done.

It can be a combination of speed and spin that forces the ball to go up off their bat.

Forehand Topspin Variations

A great weapon is being able to vary the amount of speed and spin on your forehand topspin stroke. By making your stroke more vertical and brushing the ball finely, you can generate more spin. For more speed you need to swing more horizontally.

Thank you Alois

I will try to make him focus even more.

What do you think about that that my opponents are even playing me with nondominant arm etc. ?

DK,

I'm not sure what you are really saying. Non-dominant arm, are you saying that your opponent is using there other hand to hold the bat???
